Some wide open Tulips · 10:42 AM

Definitely not at the magic hour but still worked kind of nice.

Shot with the Vivitar 105mm f2.8 macro at f2.8

Pentax 43mm Limited @f1.9

Very nice shots, the colors are really great as is the sharpness. I also like the light you shot in to get these shots, as it really adds to the image and to the color. I took some shots of these flowers a few days ago but I really like yours better.

Thanks for sharing.

These are very nice, but the first one is definitely better. The second photo doesn't have enough light in it, and I would really recommend that you bump up the brightness so that it isn't quite so underexposed. After all people don't want to have to squint to look at your photos!

Nice Tulip images...the first is my favorite

Beautiful colours, nothing short of what is expected with that lens

Two very nice shots!
Tulips are springing up everywhere, the world is beautiful

Not really a critism about the photo but rather the watermark: perhaps shrink it a little bit and increase the opacity?

Nonetheless, two very nice shots! Well done!

Thanks everyone..

Sometimes I get a little ahead of myself. I usually do shrink it on photos like this. You mean decrease the opacity, Right

That apricot color is really stunning. Haven't seen that in a tulip before.
